Several attempts were made to produce them here, for example, at Woolwich about 1669, but these ventures were short lived. The first person to master the technique of salt-glazing and continue successfully for a long period was John Dwight (c. 1633/6-1703). During the late 1660s Dwight, a lawyer by profession, was Registrar of the diocese of Chester and conducted experiments to produce stoneware at Wigan. In 1671/2 he moved to Fulham and in April 1672 was granted a patent for making 'China and Persian ware' and also 'the Stone Ware vulgarly called Collogne Ware'. In 1684 a renewal of the patent included various other types, among them 'marbled Porcellane Vessels' but there is not evidence that the experimental porcelain made by Dwight in the 1670s was produced commercially.
The sprigs on this bottle were made with brass stamps, some of which were found at the Fulham pottery in the 1860s and were later acquired by the British Museum. The initials AR on one of them probably stand for the medallist, Reinier or Regnier Arondeau (c.1655-1727). The bottle remained in the possession of Dwight's descendants until 1861-2, and in 1871 was sold at auction with other heirlooms which included two similar bottles, now in the British Museum and the Victoria and Albert Museum. The sprig of William III and Mary II indicates that the bottle was probably made before Mary''s death in 1694.referenceterm-106453adlib-term-10645360056370-7375-3dac-996c-6cc9d5db35a917th Century, Latereferenceterm-113545adlib-term-1135457790ee27-fbda-3fab-ba89-9d1301f36211William III and Mary IIreferenceterm-106395adlib-term-1063957196d3f3-463d-30bd-998b-d51c42ebc1ealiteralEnglandEnglandcountryliteralMiddlesexMiddlesexregionFulhamreferencemedia-34922adlib-media-34922ad111e20-20e1-3dd4-9d44-4fa1dc2c1e01jpegaa/aa7/C_1194_1928_281_29.jpg1heightpixels740widthpixels57016162720398001imagejpegaa/aa7/mid_C_1194_1928_281_29.jpg1heightpixels649widthpixels50016162720398001imagejpegaa/aa7/C_1194_1928_281_29.jpg1heightpixels740widthpixels57016162720398001imagejpegaa/aa7/preview_C_1194_1928_281_29.jpg1heightpixels325widthpixels25016162720398001image0media
